Indian passport holders need an entry visa for Singapore. Applications in India go through visa agents authorised by the Singapore High Commission or Consulate, not directly to the mission. The document list is short, and the length of stay is set by the officer at the checkpoint.
Where to apply: Through an authorised visa agent listed by the Singapore High Commission in New Delhi or the Consulate-General for your region.
Valid for at least six months on the date of entry.
Completed and signed by the applicant.
Two colour passport-size photos taken within the last three months.
Copy of the data page for the agent's file.
Only if requested; asked for case by case.
English translation of any document in Hindi or another language.
INR 2,100, non-refundable, plus the agent's service fee.

The High Commission says applicants do not have to buy a flight ticket before applying and carry the loss themselves if they buy one and are refused. On arrival, officers may check for a confirmed onward or return ticket, so have one by the time you travel.

No. The High Commission states that you are not required to buy a flight ticket before applying. A visa does not guarantee entry, though, and officers at the checkpoint may check for a confirmed onward or return ticket, so travel with one.
The official visa page does not ask for one. Some authorised agents request accommodation details for their own file, and it is useful to have an address for the arrival card.
Processing usually takes 3 to 5 working days. Many travellers hold a reservation while the visa is processed and pay for the ticket once it is granted, which avoids the loss the High Commission warns about.
A 96-hour visa-free transit facility exists for Indian nationals in air transit who hold a valid visa or long-term pass from one of eight listed countries and a valid onward ticket leaving within 96 hours. It cannot be extended.
